Mr. Fawzi Barhoum is Hamas spokesman in Gaza, he is from Rafah city. In an interview with Al Qassam English Website about the most recent issues, he explains Hamas movement views:
How Hamas deals with the others:
"Hamas is a moderate Islamic movement, Hamas doesn’t adopt any extremist views against the others, no body heard before that Hamas hurt one for his religious believes.
"The conflict with the Zionist enemy is restricted inside the Occupied Palestinian territories, we have nothing to do with the Jews outside of our land, and we are fighting to liberate our land.
"We respect all religions and the best example for that the Hamas in the latest election supported a Christian MP & put another one in its list.
"We respect the women, so Hamas senate a woman as a mayor for Ramallah city, she was also a Christian, and also Hamas has several women as MPs.
How Hamas deals with the foreign issues:
"We don't interfere in the interests of any countries, also we don't interfere in the internal situations for any country we deal with it, and we are trying to build best relations with all countries except the Zionist entity.
"We are not in a conflict with the western world, we respect them as they should respect us & respect the Palestinian people choice, and we seek for special ties with the western world to help us in restoring our rights.
"The Western world began to realize that the right vision of the Palestinian-Zionist conflict, the Palestinians are victims & the Zionist entity used all the westerns to execute a huge humanitarian crimes, after the war on Gaza, the westerns understood that Hamas is just protecting the Palestinian people."
Hamas struggle is Resistance & not terrorism:
"We ask them if they consider Sharl Digol struggle as terrorism, we ask them if they consider the Vietnamese struggle as terrorism, the entire world witnessed that the Zionist entity has committed crimes against the Palestinian civilians.
"All the liberated countries began to persecute the war criminals, we ask the western world to persecute the Zionist leaders for committing war crimes.
"Hamas has not any problem to make contacts with any country, the relation must be on the base of supporting us for restoring our rights, and also we have no problem to meet them directly.
Good indication from the western world:
"We received positive indications from the European countries & others on their relations with Hamas, the indications was on several levels officially, PLC members, they realized that.
"The second positive thing that the western officials now began to hear the point view of Hamas after it was concealed by the Zio-American propaganda."
